Vandhadhu yaar en manadhil
Nindradhu yaar en uyiril
Aahaa thoovaanam thaen thoovum
Enna pudhu dhaagam suga raagam
Yaarkku yaar endru ezhudhi vaitha
O brammaa dhevanae
Enakku ival endru ezhudhi vaitha
En kaadhal arinjanae
Amudha kadalil siru padagu pol
Dhinamum midhakkiren midhakkiren
Idhaya kovilukkul vilakku yaetri vaikka
Azhaikkiren varavaerkkiren unnai
Vaa vaa yaarum illaadha
Theevukkul vaasam seivom
Povomaa kaigal thaan korthu
Yaarkku yaar endru ezhudhi vaitha
O brammaa dhevanae
Enakku ival endru ezhudhi vaitha
En kaadhal arinjanae
Imaya malai uyarathilae
Parakkattum nam kaadhal kodi
Yaeri nindru magizhndha padi
Valam varattum paruva kodi
Dhinamum unnai rasitha padi
En pozhudhu pularumadi
Unadhu idhazh pani mazhaiyil
Mana malargal malarumadi
Anbin izhaigal kondu naan
Unadhu saelai neigiraen
Endhan nenjin thaalathai

Who is it that walked into my heart?
Who is it that settled in my soul?
Aha, a gentle drizzle sprinkles sweetness like honey,
What a new longing this is, what a sweet melody!
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
Like a little boat on an ocean of nectar,
I drift and float every single day.
To light the lamp within the temple of my heart,
I call out to you, I welcome you.
Come, come, where no one else is around,
let us go live together on an island.
Shall we go, holding each other's hands?
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
High upon the peaks of the Himalayas,
let our flag of love flutter.
Standing tall and filled with joy,
let my youthful beauty stroll around.
Admiring you every single day,
my morning dawns, my dear.
In the cool dew falling from your lips,
the flowers of my heart bloom.
With the delicate threads of love,
I weave a saree for you.
The beating rhythm of my heart,
I hear in the chime of your anklets.
Drizzling softly, scattering a gentle spray,
the clouds of love, oh the clouds of love.
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
Like a little boat on an ocean of nectar,
I drift and float every single day.
To light the lamp within the temple of my heart,
I call out to you, I welcome you.
Come, come, where no one else is around,
let us go live together on an island.
Shall we go, holding each other's hands?
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
I will lie beneath you like a pillow,
I will offer my lap for you to sleep.
As your eyes open, sweet music,
I will play with your gentle fingers.
Even while you bite your nails,
if your brow furrows, my heart aches.
If even a tiny speck makes your eyelids droop,
my heart flutters in worry like beating wings.
Just say the word, my dear, and I will do it at once.
Plant just one seed, and I will turn it into a garden.
The beautiful life destined for you and me,
no one else will ever have, no one else!
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
Like a little boat on an ocean of nectar,
I drift and float every single day.
To light the lamp within the temple of my heart,
I call out to you, I welcome you.
Come, come, where no one else is around,
let us go live together on an island.
Shall we go, holding each other's hands?
You who wrote the destiny of who belongs to whom,
Oh Lord Brahma,
You who wrote that she is meant for me,
Oh wise master of my love!
